It seems like my problem is exactly what automator should be here for. Here it is:
I need to edit about 600 PDF files. They are forms with multiple fields for text entry. The documents have information on them already. Some of the fields have info I want to keep, but one of the fields is wrong and needs to be the same on each document. Is there a way Automator can be set up to paste text in a specific field on a PDF file? While preserving the information on the rest of the document of course...


doubtful - PDF forms are notoriously tied to acrobat and erratically supported. if you were able to batch export all of the form data, it could work, though i don't know if batch export is possible either.
